I actually totally agree with that comment. I hate gay guy's weird voices and all the lesbians are just fat and ugly. The world would be a much better place if there wasn't all these gross homosexuals running around making us puke with their gayness and such... I vote for a gay Holocaust too!!!

Homophobia still exists in countries that have strong equal rights laws. The whole point of parades is to show people that the LGBT community is diverse, that bob down the street could be gay, or your paper boy, or your lawn mower. It helps because it brings together more than just the flaming queens and shows people that there are "average" gay people too. By doing this it helps closeted people to come out and for people who don't get out enough to experience a different group of society.
